I agree Paul.. but it is hard for me to establish the line on 'what is and is not' a B-movie, because we have such an indepth movie knowledge on here. A true B-movie to me is a movie not produced by a major studio with actors that aren't really actors or at least I've never seen them before.. ha

"Just One of the Guys" and "Modern Girls" from that list are in my Top 20 from the 80's. I really don't consider either film a B-movie, but can see why others just might.

I've never really liked the term "B movie" for anything made after 1960 or so. The term originally referred to movies made specifically for the bottom half of a double feature back in the day. They were usually low budget genre "programmers" with second-tier stars and short running times. Outside of drive-ins, which now just run two "A" films back to back, intentionally designed double features don't really exist any more, nor do movies made specifically to be the "B" films. The B films of yesterday--horror, action, and the 1940's equivalent of today's disposable-fall-mystery-thriller-starring-Ashley-Judd films--are now all "A" studio films.

That said, this place has done so much to ignite interest in really great, forgotten treasures of the 80s such as "Night of the Comet" and "Night of the Creeps." Next for re-discovery for many folks, I think, would be "The Hidden," "The Philadelphia Experiment," "Wavelength," "Without a Clue," and "TAG: The Assassination Game."
